Zombie apocalypse?
Three Stages of being a zombie exist.
Stage one/nursery zombies This is when you've only just been infected. You retain almost all of your human consciousness, but with a new hunger that you cannot control. Nothing you eat satisfies the hunger inside of you, and after 3 days - 2 weeks, you experience your skin slowly turning dull, and thinning.
Stage two/Newborns Newborns are from the 3 week mark forwards. You retain a Half-Human brain, so you can communicate normally, and have intelligence, but your emotions no longer linger, and your need to sleep is gone. Newborns are abnormally strong, Fast, and hungry. No Remorse, and finding a craving for human flesh. you may attempt satisfaction by eating animals, but nothing compares to humans.
Stage three/Goners Goners have no humanity left. intelligence may linger, but only in a baby-like amnesiac form. They can't satisfy their hunger with anything but Humans. They become slower and weaker as time goes on, and they look more dead. They feel no pain, and the only way to kill them is burning them to death. Stage four/Recovery After an Injection of the cure, Zombies begin recovery. It's bringing their brain back to a humane functioning, and making them healthier.
